Rock group Daughtry will hit the road this summer on an intimate club tour that's set to kick off August 2nd in Lake Buena Vista, Florida. The 13-date outing will wrap on August 22nd in Las Vegas. Frontman Chris Daughtry says, "This club tour is a thank you to our loyal fans. It's a great way for them to see us up close and, more importantly, at a cheap price." Daughtry will schedule a more extensive tour for this fall.
Daughtry will be out behind its upcoming sophomore album, Leave This Town, which arrives July 15th. It features the single "No Surprise."
The first 50 fans in each market who pre-order the new album at the band's website will receive a free ticket to their local Daughtry show. Other tickets go on sale July 11th. There's also a limited number of VIP packages available through pre-sales, which take place July 8th through the 10th.
Reviews have been coming in on the new album:
Rolling Stone: "The surprisingly diverse results include everything from the clubby 'Supernatural' to the fiddle-driven Vince Gill duet 'Tennessee Line' ... 'Call Your Name' is an anthem reminiscent of 'November Rain,' complete with a stirring key change, falsetto vocal runs and an explosive Slash-style guitar climax."
Billboard: "And while Daughtry's voice and rock riffs still play center stage to most of the album's tracks, several songs take some creative chances. Daughtry wrote 'You Don't Belong' on his own; it's a hard-driving song that wouldn't sound out of place on an Alice in Chains album."
